You stack the triggers so it resolves first, then it let's you draw cards with Oloro's ability. If you have other upkeep lifegain (which will almost always be the case), he's now drawing 3 cards every upkeep with an initial investment of one mana.

It's one of the best Oloro cards in the game. Free mana right when you want it. (It used to be bad because of mana-burn, that's why it exists)

I would suggest Nihil Spellbomb because you have no graveyard hosers and it draws you a card.

I would also suggest Sun Titan because it fetchs back most of your stuff and help you soft lock people with Ghost Quarter since you can fetch lands with the titan.

Also if you want some other ideas, here is my Oloro deck which is more artifact based than this one. Artifacts for Life!

Ignore the Sun Titan bit, I missed it in the decklist. So how about the straight up Strip Mine? The cost isn't too expensive.

Silent Arbiter and Collective Restraint for more stalling.

The_Dragonmaster: Thanks for the recommendations. The reason why I'm not running Silent Arbiter is because I want this to be a 4-player game deck which allows others to beat the crap out of each other while leaving me alone. About Collective Restraint, I think I'll get more out of Sphere of Safety due to the number of enchantments I'm running. What do you think?

Allthough Sphere of Safety is better in comparison, you need as much of those effects as possible. So that's why I advise to run Collective Restraint.

The_Dragonmaster, what would you recommend I take out to make room for Collective Restraint, and also to bring the deck down to a 100?

I want to say Bloodchief Ascension, Dismember and Darksteel Mutation but I don't know. It's up to you.

I'd strongly suggest some more fetchies instead of basic lands: e.g. take out one Plains/Island/Swamp and add Esper Panorama, Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse or even better Duals and real Fetchies of course You could also use Vivid Creek, Vivid Marsh and Vivid Meadow in exchange for one Basic each.

If you want some more Turtle Power, I'd suggest Ajani Steadfast because of his Emblem and maybe one or two cards like: Orbs of Warding, Urza's Armor, Plated Pegasus, Thunderstaff or Righteous Cause if you are funny.

Rune-Scarred Demon is a nice Tutor and a Win-Con. Only a bit expensive.

Pro Tip:

You can put an underscore (this _ thing) inbetween the words for your custom categories to spread them out without the HTML ripping off the last word.
